| Summary |
Use of slightly acidic hypochlorous acid water (PURESTER-generated water) to irrigate strawberry seedlings revealed that it had an effect for reducing infection with anthracnose, a major disease with a strong bearing on cultivation. In addition, because there was no detectable adverse influence on growth, it is thought that slightly acidic hypochlorous acid water could be effectively used for irrigation of strawberry seedlings. |
